ALBERTA, CAN. (RFD-TV) — Canada’s Carney government narrowly survived a key budget confidence vote, winning by just two votes. Shawn Haney, Host of RealAg Radio on Rural Radio SiriusXM Channel 147, joined us on Tuesday’s Market Day Report with the latest from the North.
In his interview with RFD-TV News, Haney explained what the narrow victory reveals about the stability of Canada’s federal government heading into the new year, and how rural Canadians and the ag sector should view this combination of big spending and big deficits.
Haney also discussed the up to 75 legislative challenges the government is now facing through upcoming budget bills, and what Canadians should expect in terms of political tension and the likelihood of more confidence fights in the months ahead.
As ag lawmakers in the Senate await the House vote on the Farm Bill, they are eager to discuss the challenges farmers face before it is their turn to take up the critical legislation.
